I’m using this program for long time now, its a nice & very very “useful” program. ;). I’ve tried various other similar programs like magic boss, hide windows etc and found this superior to all.

only drawback i found on this is once screensaver is active and when u resume work the hidden program window will be there in the taskbar and alt+tab window. The program will be still hidden but the window will be ther.

Yeah, most of the programs like this seem to work fine on Vista but aren’t listed as compatible. (TrayIt, even, is Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP apparently, but it works with Vista).

I’ve used TrayIT before but I don’t remember it having the capability to hide windows entirely (no traces in task manager or the taskbar) so I had to find something else..I could be wrong though, if something changed… ;-)

This software seems good but outdated. The publisher’s website says it’s tested up to Windows XP. Have you tested it on Vista?
